This Artist Created A “Car” That Fooled The Police!

So while this probably won’t happen in Malaysia, this is a hilarious piece of news that would make our boys in blue red faced. In Montreal, Canada, a brilliant artist and machinist made a Delorean DMC-12, exactly like the one in Back to the Future movies, completely out of snow.

What he did not expect was the police falling for his “car”, believing it to be real and parked illegally.

Simon Laprise made the “car”  in a snow-removal zone and even used a real windshield wiper he found lying on the ground while working on the project. After his project was completed, his “car” was realistic enough to attract the attention of a passing police patrol car, which stopped to investigate and allow for a priceless photograph.

"I did the car to have fun expressing my creativity on that beautiful day," he told Buzzfeed. "I am passionate about building and designing stuff."

In the end, the 33-year-old's creation was destroyed by a snowplow the following morning. But not before the officer who stopped to investigate left a note, written in French, that reads "You made our night!!!"
